About Cave Hotel and Golf Resort

In our past we used caves for warmth, sanctuary, and shelter. In our nomadic lives they gave protection from the elements, sanctums of peace for rest and recuperation. Safe places where we built social bonds, created art, and formed our culture. Caves were the original hotels, where we defined our nature. Today a Cave Hotel is primal, authentic. A luxury escape that feels instinctively right. Not just a night’s sleep: an experience.

Luxury Rooms

The detail across all our 41 bedrooms has been applied to the highest specification, ensuring that our guests are immersed in total luxury during their stay with us.

The Penthouse

The Cave Penthouse is, quite simply, the best hotel experience in Kent. On the second floor, with a huge wrap-around balcony from which guests can enjoy both sunrises and sunsets, it is a 2,700 square foot space perfect for entertaining. Have a look at our room specification for more information.
